HUMBLE, Texas — An Humble teen was arrested over the weekend and charged with making a terroristic threat on a plane.

Hector Fernando Fonseca, 17, and his father were boarding a United flight at Bush Intercontinental Airport in Houston when the teen allegedly posted two threats on Snap Chat.

The first post said "blown this ---- up," according to court documents....

Hmmm.  Another case of alert, motivated law enforcement catching people who express a desire to cause mayhem.

Snap Chat acted correctly.

It needs to teach the big boys in the tech world how to act properly.
